Ledger is a powerful, double-entry accounting system that is accessed
|
|
from the UNIX command-line. This may put off some users, since there is
|
|
no flashy UI, but for those who want unparalleled reporting access to
|
|
their data there are few alternatives.
|
|
|
|
Ledger uses text files for input. It reads the files and generates
|
|
reports; there is no other database or stored state. To use Ledger, you
|
|
create a file of your account names and transactions, run from the
|
|
command line with some options to specify input and requested reports,
|
|
and get output. The output is generally plain text, though you could
|
|
generate a graph or html instead. Ledger is simple in concept,
|
|
surprisingly rich in ability, and easy to use.
